[edit] Hari Singh (soldier)

Hari Singh (soldier) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non notable soldier. Article has no real sources and was likely the creation of a family member appears to be more of a geneolgoy page than an encyclopedia article. Daniel J. Leivick 23:08, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Nomination withdrawn. Thanks for all the work on the article guys. My mistake, I have been going through old notability cases and removing misplaced or outdated tags and nominating close calls for deletion. --Daniel J. Leivick 03:52, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, I am going to try to clean it up so it is at least readable but from what I can tell he was given awards and appointed to various positions. After I can figure out what the writer wanted to say, I might change my mind. But for now I say keep. Callelinea 23:34, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
Comment: This one is tough but it reads a little better, the guy was a General in the Indian Army that was awarded a high Award by the President of India. I'm going to take a little break and see if I can correct some spelling in the article, all those names were giving me a headache, but all kidding aside this General really was someone important to Indian history or at least to the Indian Army.
  • keep and make a better article. He might be notable, it's hard to tell from what's there. --Rocksanddirt 23:36, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Suggestion Perhaps there's a Wikiproject this could be brought up at? Not all generals are notable, of course, but this one appears to be more notable than the average general. --Charlene 00:40, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, Recepient of military award . I have improved the article somewhat. Shyamsunder 12:57,10 July 2007 (UTC)

Can someone find an administrator to close this AfD since the nominator withdrew his nomination. Callelinea 04:05, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry about, some one will close it at some point. The article will not be deleted. --Daniel J. Leivick 04:09, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
